Tour privato di 8 giorni nello Yunnan a Kunming, Dali, Lijiang e Shangri-La

It started more than five years ago. In early 2020, we established a month-long China travel plan for April 2020 with Kina, the best travel consultant at Travel China Guide. Unfortunately, we had to cancel the whole plan due to what is known now as Covit-19. A few months ago, I found the emails that I exhanged with Kina, and I was very happy to learn that she was still working at Travel China Guide and remembered us. We do not know how many times we changed our itinerary until we finally decided to start our Yunnan tour on September 12 from Kunming. Kina was alway prompt to give us postive replies no matter how many times we changed our plans with endless patience, and she arranged excellent guides for us for the tour, although one of the three guides could barely communicate with us in English. Due to our old age, we were not able to visit Shang-rila, but we enjoyed the unique cultural heritage of Yunnan.

The trip was well organized, we visited the places previously agreed. As always you traveled with this agency very good hotels The very good guides nice, doing their best to comply with what we asked. Thanks to Scarlett, Dali, Claire Chengdu, Lulu Kunming (the driver Jack Lee) Alice Lijiang Peter Sangri-la Thanks to Amy for organizing everything so well

This trip to Yunnan was one of my most memorable trip traveling together with my family. We visited Kunming, Dali, Lijiang and Shangri-la. Each town has its own unique charm and character. The scenery is just breathtaking at every stops. From Kunming, we traveled to Hongtudi famous for its stunning and colorful mountainous scenery. In Dali, we learned about the local artistic embroidery. Unfortunately we did not get to see much in Erhai Lake due to the rainy weather. In Lijiang we visited Yulong (Jade Dragon) snow mountain and were glad we made it to the Yak alpine meadow at an elevation around 3700m. We also had the opportunity to spend some time with a Naxi family. In Shangri-la, we visited a Tibetan family and learned about their culture and and tried the yak milk tea. There were just too many unforgettable moments to mention. Many thanks to our travel consultant Amy Jian at Travel China Tour Guide to set up this trip for us.

Cool weather when we were there. From Dali to Lijiang , there’s many ancient cities , we like Shuhe the most, less crowded . As for Yulong Snow Mountain, our time up there is too short, wasted a lot of time just to queue up. Overall it was a good trip, highly recommend using Travel China Guide. Ms Amy Jian is our coordinator for this trip, efficient and responsive.

After a lot of email correspondence I would like to thank Sally Si for arranging a wonderful seamless bespoke itinerary for our tour of the Yunnan province that was within my budget. Our hotels we of a good standard also our guides were friendly knowledgeable and very helpful nothing was too much trouble. I would definitely recommend using this company. My only concern was paying by bank transfer instead of credit card but it worked out fine and I received an invoice immediately after they received my payment so I will definitely use Travel China Guide again in the future.

We booked a 7 day 6 nights private tour for the 5 of us covering Kunming, Dali, Lijiang and Shangrila. In Dali, we were greeted by Xiao Tang, our driver cum guide. He was very friendly and helpful, offering recommendations for places to eat that were not the usual tourist spots. In Lijiang, we had to cycle along the coastline to cover a bigger area faster but 1 of my colleagues was too old to cycle so he offered to take him as a pillion rider in a 2-cyclist bicycle even though Xiao Tang had not cycled for a decade. When I had very bad altitude sickness in Shangrila, he used his break time to source for canned oxygen for me. When most drivers drop-off their customers at 6pm, Xiao Tang would send us to our preferred restaurants for dinner then send us to wherever we want to go after that. He would brief us on the programme for the day and see to the arrangements for our daily accommodation. In Shangrila, he brought us to the home of a local who harvested Chinese herbs themselves from the mountains. Hence, we got to buy quality herbs at very good prices because there was no middleman involved. We paid only CNY2,700 each for our 7 day private tour which includes airport transfers, hotel accommodation with breakfast, tickets to tourist attractions, first class seat train tickets and 7 seater car with driver. If you're looking for a trip with more unusual, non-touristy spots, look for Xiao Tang to customise one for you I'd say Xiao Tang made our trip very enjoyable with his attention to our individual preferences. Highly recommend his service. His Wechat ID is LX1993092. He only speaks Chinese though.

We have arrived to Lijiang directly from raw and grey landscape of Tibet. Our guide, Daniel from travelchinaguide.com welcomed us at the airport with big and warm smile, and in excellent English gave us the general info about Yunnan province and took us to the hotel in the middle of the old town. It looked a bit commercial nowadays, but still you can smell the atmosphere of old trading towns. Silver, fruits, jade, the art next to the junk... Just beautiful. And next day we went to visit traditional Naxi people embroidery school. This is a must for anybody sensitive to the beauty of hand made art. Two pieces of the embroidery art are now hanging on the wall of our Warsaw apartment. And the Lijiang adventure was coronated by a nature trip to Jade Dragon Mountain. After visiting the emerald meadow, Daniel lead us along the river for a nice stroll. On top, after we were already back to Poland it turn out that we needed an extra document from China to clear our embroidery at the customs. We asked Daniel to help us to solve the problem and Daniel acted immediately. Thanks for your help Daniel, thank you travelchinaguide.com!
